    Hey guys, thanks for the compliments! Much appreciated.

    With respect to how long it takes to draw something like this, TOO long I'm afraid... both Sami and Optimal Convoy can probably attest to, lol...

    Like the vast majority of you; I've got a day job - and I get tired coming home from work so I usually try to put in 1 hour a day, not enough to become professional, that's for sure. But I'm getting faster, a year ago a drawing like this would've taken me twice as long. If I was too sit down and concentrate only on this without interruption, I think it would take me approx. 8 hours to pencil and 6 hours to ink - pros are much faster than that :D 

    BTW: Predaking would wipe the floor with any G1 Gestalt IMO, even Devastator, lol...

    And why are they fighting? Ask O.Convoy - it was his idea and I liked it... :)

    Actually, I've been criticized by comic professionals (incl. Pat Lee back when I had a 1-on-1 job interview with him; right before Dreamwave went belly-up) that too many thick lines aren't good either. I left the drawing as is, at the request of Optimal Convoy, who wants to get the drawing coloured in a DW-ish 3D style - not inking the background and natural elements will allow a colourist the opportunity to give a more 'earthy' soft feel to the pencils (whereas that can't be done with solid straight ink lines)...

    Piranacon would win because he has a pink torso and vaguely elephant ears sticking out of his helmet. Also he wields his choice of a shark-gun, a squid-gun, a stingray-gun, a lobster-gun, and a whatever-the-hell-damn-thing-Skalor-is-gun!!

    That is one awesome drawing. Predakings right arm looks like it is bent funny. Since nobody else has mentioned it I must be looking at it wrong. How is it bent?

    Actually, it was not my intention for the right arm to be perceived as being bent. It's extended straight as if to suggest a straight swiping motion with the sword towards Piranacon's head (who manages to duck in time).
